5. Allowing religious symbols on public property
Another issue that could be added to the Supreme Court’s docket concerns the separation of church and state. It addresses a set of rulings that barred the display of large crosses on public property.
In two lawsuits out of Maryland likely to be considered as one case if they’re granted an appeal before the Supreme Court, and a similar one out of Florida whose parties are hoping to bypass lower courts so that it may be considered with the Maryland cases, the Supreme Court may consider how far the government can go in preventing religious symbols on public property.
Considering the new conservative/religious leaning of the Supreme Court, I think there's a good chance that the court will overall the bans.
